TIP OF THE DAY - TUESDAY

DAY ONE-30 WAYS TO OUTSMART TEMPTATION:
Take a deep breath. When you're stressed or anxious, instead of reaching for a bag of chips, focus on your breath. A few slow, steady breaths through the nose can calm frazzled nerves. Add a mantra: Inhale peace, exhale tension.
This sounds simple and silly but it works. Remember if you destress like this instead of eating for 17 minutes, any temptation and cravings will leave without eating too much or the wrong foods.
